You gotta love public transportation.

Since my car kicked the bucket (rest in peace little red honda!) Levi and I have been confined to one car. It's really no big deal... we've been making it work for 2 weeks now. The only problem is that we work/go to school in two different cities. (Me in Layton, him up to Weber's campus)

We've been bumming rides, picking up/dropping each other off, and on some occasions taking the UTA bus. It takes me a little longer to get home, but it's worth it, plus I only have to do it on Friday's.

So... I'm on the bus coming home from Layton today. Stopping, going, stopping, going... etc. you get the idea. I had my headphones in and was just trying to enjoy the ride as much as possible, we pull up to one of the many, many stops on the side of the road, and I couldn't believe what happened next. The bus driver HIT the bus stop sign that he was stopping at. HIT IT! We all had to get off the bus and try to fit on the next one., which we didn't, so some of us ended up waiting for the one after that.

It took me 2 hours to get from Layton back to our house. I was so tired. I got home, took a shower and put everything I had on in the washer. (Public transportation is handy... but I'm not taking THOSE kind of chances!!!)

I really hope we find a car this weekend... but I'm not holding my breath. (Well I might if I ride the bus again.) :)
